Zhou Fangyuan looked at Spielberg standing in front of him, and he could see that this person was the same as countless people had commented on him, a person who was not very raunchy and didn't like to participate in various activities, but he still came today, and it was Cameron who invited him. To be honest, Zhou Fangyuan really likes Spielberg's movies, and in his opinion, Spielberg is undoubtedly better at telling stories than Cameron.

Of course, it's not that Cameron can't tell stories, but how to say it, it's like an exam, if you divide the two courses of "storytelling" and "big scenes", and each has a full score of 150 points, then Cameron is estimated to get a full score on big scenes, and storytelling, I'm afraid it will only be 140 points, while Spielberg, on the contrary, is a full score for storytelling, and a little lacking in big scenes, 140 points. The level of the two is comparable, and they both stand in the position of the world's top directors, but the focus of the two is different.

Cameron prefers big scenes, spends money, and gives people a visual treat. While enjoying the visuals, add some connotative and profound things to enhance the grade of the movie. Spielberg, on the other hand, seems to be more willing to tell a story, and there are big scenes, of course, but only as a side dish to the story.

In short, the two directors have their own strengths, and it cannot be said that one is necessarily better than the other.

It's just that Zhou Fangyuan, as a descendant, has some regrets, in the years when he was reborn, Cameron was still strong, and Lao Pi began to be questioned about his old age and weakness.

Fortunately, after the release of "Player One", the spectacle it showed was indeed an eye-opener, and the veteran director Spielberg successfully won a city for himself, proving that he is still immortal.

Especially in the years before his rebirth, the other three directors of Hollywood's four kings, Martin Scorsese, James Cameron, and George Lucas, who are as famous as Spielberg, have either withdrawn from the rivers and lakes, or have a very low production rate, especially Cameron's "Avatar", which makes people want to strangle him. Only Spielberg still maintains the rhythm of almost one work a year, and the diligence is outrageous. Although movies such as "Dream Blowing Giant", "Before Spies" and "War Horse" are indeed not so exciting, he still sent Daniel Day-Lewis and Mark Rylens to the Oscar podium, and his strength should not be underestimated.

Especially in Hollywood at that time, the anime films set off by Marvel and DC were still spreading, and the new generation of directors has become Christopher Nolan, Denis Villeneuve, Paul Thomas Anderson, Damien Chazelle and others, but they have indeed not completely completed the succession. Spielberg, Hollywood still needs him, and "Player One" once again showed his first-class business control.

Steven Spielberg is a Jewish-American director.

Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1946, he has loved the art of cinema since childhood. At the age of four, he used his family's 8mm camera to photograph the life around him. At the age of 16, Spielberg, who had a basic ability to think and practice film, made his first full-length film, "Firelight," on which the teenager earned $100, which was his first box office receipt. Since then, Spielberg has embarked on a film journey.

In his more than 30 years of directing career, there are not only "Jaws", "ET", "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Saving Private Ryan" such as "Jaws", "ET", "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Saving Private Ryan", but also "The Color Purple", "Empire of the Sun", "Schindler's List" and "Lincoln" such as "Artificial Intelligence" and "Minority Report". All styles can be played, and there is hardly a second person to be found other than him. Even with his namesake, Martin Scorsese seems to be only good at making gangster films, James Cameron seems to be better suited to science fiction films, and George Lucas has only one "Star Wars" to form an empire, and their styles are not as varied as Spielberg's. The awesome thing is that whether it is a commercial film or an art film, it can achieve huge box office results in his hands.

Spielberg is a movie wizard that Hollywood has cultivated on its own.

Just as the Champs-Elysées represents a certain temperament of France, Spielberg has become a landmark figure in today's American films. Many of his works, whether commercial or art, have an impact far beyond the film itself, and have become more and more interpretable over time.

Jaws is Spielberg's second work after officially starting his career as a Hollywood director, and it is also a work that has scared people all over the world. The great white shark's fangs have been on screen for nearly three decades, but they still make people shudder. Jaws was released in 1975 and grossed $260 million. "Jurassic Park", this movie not only achieved astronomical box office, but also set off a dinosaur craze around the world. But as time passed, it became clear that the film's success was not only due to the groundbreaking spectacle of digital technology, but also to delve into the grand theme of what kind of catastrophic consequences science could bring if left unchecked. At the beginning, it was a standard commercial film, but it turned out to be a posterity, which contained great artistic value. When watching these films, we are often fascinated by the bizarre plots and imaginative magical images in the films, and after watching the movies, we will be amazed that Spielberg's mind can finally contain such a rich imagination.

In the early years, the ability to create films such as "Contact of the Third Kind" and "ET" lies in Spielberg's long-standing interest in the sky and the universe. His father, a computer engineer with a wide range of hobbies, woke Spielberg up in his sleep when he was 4 years old and took him to a meadow to watch a meteor shower. From that experience, the young Spielberg developed a keen interest in the universe and extraterrestrial life. Human exploration of extraterrestrial life has always been eye-catching, so Hollywood movies continue to appear in various shapes of star images. Moreover, in Spielberg's science fiction films, extraterrestrial life is often not scary, but full of childlike fun and cuteness, warm and fascinating.

Accompanied by these adorable alien creatures, Spielberg's film is another imaginative image, the monster. Unlike good-natured aliens, these monsters tend to be terrifying and murderous characters. Whether it's the man-eating giant shark in "Jaws" or the ferocious dinosaurs in "Jurassic Park", they all play the role of human enemies in the film. The monsters in Spielberg's films often play the role of horror killers, and in the film, the human protagonist needs to go through a tenacious struggle with bayonets to finally defeat the monster and save his life. It is said that after the release of "Jaws", the frightened people of the United States did not dare to go to the beach to swim for many years, and the tourism industry of the United States also suffered heavy losses.

Like the aliens, the monsters in Spielberg's films are equally imaginative, and in a sense, they are more like a nightmare of Spielberg's childhood. When Spielberg recalled his childhood, he once mentioned a famous animated film produced by the Disney Company, "Snow White". The Disney cartoon has long been considered a wonderful, enjoyable, horror-free children's classic, but Spielberg recalls that when he watched the cartoon when he was 8 years old, the presence of a witch in the film plunged him into an irrepressible neurotic fear. Spielberg's cowardly behavior shows that he began to show extreme sensitivity to the world around him from an early age. And once this sensitivity to life is transformed into sensitivity in artistic creation, it will inevitably show extraordinary creativity and appeal in the works.

Comparing the good-natured extraterrestrial life, we will find an interesting phenomenon, the ferocious monsters in Spielberg's films are often life that exists or has existed on Earth. From this, it can be seen that the monster in his film is not only a childlike nightmare, but also implies Spielberg's anxiety and reflection on the dangerous situation facing humanity. If we expand the range of monsters infinitely, isn't the German** who slaughtered Jews in Schindler's List even more brutal than Jaws and dinosaurs?

Since then, Spielberg has collaborated with George Lucas on three "Indiana Jones" films, which are also considered to be Spielberg's most commercially charged films. Mysterious treasures, thrilling adventures, and intense exoticism make "The Indiana Jones Series" a fairy tale of the Arabian Nights, in those scenes that may be mysterious, magnificent, malevolent, or mysterious. It can be seen that Spielberg's adventures also contain childlike fantastic fantasies. Young Spielberg's fantasies about adventure are often the ones of elves and ghosts, which are often mischievous.

It was like when he tricked his three sisters into looking at a skull he had hidden in his storage room, which he had designed to not only roll his eyes, but also glow with an eerie light. Later, all these horror farces became the plot of the Indiana Jones series. Spielberg's playful mentality makes the series both exciting and hilarious, and all the elements that come together form the most basic structure of an entertainment film, and Spielberg's rich fantasies from his childhood make this structure impeccable.

Spielberg, who is now over half a hundred years old, always wears a signature smile on his face when he appears in public, and many people think that he looks like a child when he smiles, a little cunning, a little naïve, and has an incomparably rich fantasy about the world around him and the vast universe. It has been said that since Disney, no filmmaker has had a more instinctive sense of the ecstasy and magic of children's imagination than Spielberg. And his ability to treat his films with warmth stems from the loneliness he has experienced since he was a child, and after being injured, he did not suffer and hate, but treated him kindly.

In 1993, at the age of 47, Spielberg finally won the Oscar for Best Director for "Schindler's List". And in the same year as "Schindler's List", he also filmed "Jurassic Park". In the same year, there is no second person in the world who can achieve such a balance between art and business, only Spielberg, and he is the only one!

It was also he who single-handedly opened up the summer vacation file. It was 1975, and Spielberg "frightened" the audience with the movie "Jaws" and set box office records, thus ushering in a new era of Hollywood commercial blockbusters. At that time, most directors also focused on crime, politics and social topics, such as "One Flew Over the Asylum" and "Hot Afternoon". But Spielberg did the opposite. His works are grandiose and provide people with a real sense of the big screen viewing enjoyment.

The United States Film Academy selected the 100 greatest films in film history, and Spielberg accounted for 5 of them, the most of all directors. British TotalFilm magazine voted the greatest director of film history, and Spielberg ranked third.

Being able to stand with such a great director, Zhou Fangyuan also felt a lot of emotion.

Spielberg's ability to be here today is completely at the invitation of Cameron, Zhou Fangyuan wants to work with the two masters at the same time, and he hopes to make a movie, a film that has both Cameron-style crazy scenes and the profound connotation of Spielberg's format. Of course, it is a bit extravagant and wasteful to concentrate two masters at the same time in a movie, because there are too many overlaps between them, not to mention that with their current status, it is almost impossible to forcibly pinch these two people, because they both have their own pride, and they are both top figures in the directorial industry, to be honest, it is no longer a matter of money or not.

At their point, money or something, capital or something, for them, the impact is already very small.

Because their status and status are enough to attract countless capital, even if they don't cooperate with someone, they have inexhaustible resources to use. Therefore, if you want to cooperate with the two of you at the same time, you still need to have some necessary means, and you can't rush it, you must try it slowly.

Zhou Fangyuan, he just has such an idea, it doesn't mean that he has to do it now, it is impossible to succeed, he has to take his time and look for opportunities little by little. Not easy is certainly not easy, but as long as you have this idea, you will find an opportunity sooner or later.

Especially Spielberg, since he is a staunch anti-war faction and has filmed movies like "Schindler's List", Zhou Fangyuan has always wanted to promote the anti-** deeds of the Chinese people in the form of movies, showing the tenacious and unyielding will of the Chinese people to fight hard in the face of the enemy. But what I'm saying now is false, take your time, and one day I'll be able to pry Spielberg, the great god.

After chatting with each other at the door of the villa, Zhou Fangyuan walked towards the center of the banquet with Cameron and Spielberg.
